Abstract

Argues that the lack of development in computer-based testing is the result of four factors: (1) a lack of interest among computer-assisted language learning (CALL) researchers and testing professionals; (2) persistent technical limitations of computers; (3) unresolved theoretical concerns; and (4) equity issues.
